Auction History Result 8m062 BERMUDA MYSTERY 1sh '44 Preston Foster, Ann Rutherford! Date Sold 11/17/2009 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) The Bermuda Mystery, the 1944 Benjamin Stoloff Caribbean romantic love triangle murder mystery crime comedy ("From the story by John Larkin"; about an engaged private detective, who, through no choice of his own, gets mixed up with the ditzy possible heir to a fortune!) starring Preston Foster, Ann Rutherford, Charles Butterworth, Helene Reynolds, Jean Howard, and Richard Lane. Note that this movie dealt with a "tontine", which is something that was once explored in literature, the idea of a group of rich people putting up either all their money or a lot of money, and the last person to survive inherits everything, which naturally is an invitation to murder! Also, note that 20th Century-Fox intended this as a lighthearted comedy mystery melodrama, and wanted it to be the first of a series, a sort of "Thin Man" type of series, with Foster and Rutherford, but apparently, this first entry did not do well, so it is the only one that was made.

There are areas of tattering and paper loss along the foldlines and around the edges of the poster (crudely repaired with paper and tape from the back). Learn More about condition grades
